hi;
Once a golden system is defined, you need to make sure that there is enough file
system space for the golden image and the resulting ISO image. For example, if the system image is
3GB in size, then you will need a directory with 3GB available space for the golden image and
another directory with 3GB available space for the ISO image.
One important thing to keep in mind when creating an ISO image is that these tools are designed to
be used to create installation media ├в on CD or DVD. As a result, the overall size of the ISO image is
not expected to be more than approximately 4GB. Older versions of these tools were even limited to
golden images of no more than 2GB.

Hi,

also check if you have largefile option enabled:
# fstyp -v /dev/vg00/lvol3 |grep -i f_flag

If f_flag is 0 then you have max 2 GB
If f_flag is 16 then you have max 8 GB

Also:
Which command did you use?

... you have to insert the right dev for your system for /dev/vg00/lvol3 - of course ...
